Re: Ray's Back!

I'm guessing with the play of Graham, Jimmy slides back to nickel (if he's able to play).

Jimmy who? He's behind Williams and Graham on the depth chart for sure. If Chris Jackson could go, that might drop him another notch.

Goober & Eli are sure to air it out against us. Having Jimmy for depth and to give breathers to starters will be useful, but I haven't seen the skills I expected from him yet.

As for Ray, be careful what you wish for. I like his on field leadership and recognition/play-calling, but it won't be like the time off gave him back a step or 2. He'll still be the older, less mobile, "my T's now come 5-7yds behind the LOS" Ray Ray,just a little fresher.

Yes, exactly.
While Ray played, our Dline got blown off the ball.
Hard to make tackles when YOUR own 300+ pounders are getting pushed into you.
When Suggs came back, that began to change.
We need all of them back in there at the same time.
Ray and Ellerbe on the inside and Suggs and Upshaw at the edges.
